HALLEUJAH!!!!!!!!!

My big girl is not afraid of the toilet!!! My wish came true. After swimming lessons I put panties on her for the ride home. When we got home I was getting the bath ready and she told me that she needed to go. So instead of putting a diaper on her I just grabbed her and put her on the toilet. That was 8 days ago and the last accident she had was Saturday. I am in Heaven.
Here are some updated pics of the kids. I have been really lucky in that Carter and Jae have welcomed Cashton with open arms since the beginning. They are so good to him. Carter "babysat" for me the other day while I got in the shower. He loves to be in charge. I told him to make sure he entertained Cashton and he would get paid. I love it when kids get excited over 4 quarters. I know that time is short.

Happy Birthday Jae!!

Oh my little princess! She turned 3 on March 28th and I am so behind on sharing her big day with everyone. When I asked her what kind of party she wanted all she said was a purple one. I never realized how hard it is to find purple things. All her friends came dressed up in their favorite purple outfits. We had purple cake with purple frosting on purple plates. She had purple punch to go with their not so purple pizza. She had a blast.

We had a little family birthday party and Jaelynn's aunt Aly had the best candles she has ever had on a cake. She loved it. As she was blowing out her candles all I could think of was, please wish that you won't be scared that the toilet will eat you. When is this child going to give me a break?! Nothing comes easy with this little diva. I have bribed her with everything you can think of. Ever since she was about 14 months old she will stand in front of the toilet, lift up her shirt, and hold her belly button. She stands there waiting for the pee to come out. She won't give up. She promises me that she has a "girl penis" and one day it will work. I have no idea where to go with that information. Oh, how I love her!

Carter decided that he wanted his hair to look like dads. So I got the clippers out and shaved the top off. It is hard to tell in the picture but it looked pretty close. Carter wasn't happy about it. He said that he could still feel hair on the top. He wanted it smooth like dads.

This month has been crazy but fun!
